PREFACE. 


The books here catalogued are duplicates and selections 
from the great library of Mr. Henry E. Huntington and .con- 
sist entirely of books printed in the French language, mainly 
during the Nineteenth Century. Many of the volumes were 
formerly in other famous collections, notably those of Frederic 
kh. Halsey and the late Robert Hoe. 

It ws the finest collection of modern French books that has 
ever been offered for sale, either in this country or Europe, 
and it is extremely unlikely that there will ever be another 
sale of the same high character. In printing, illustrating, 
and binding these volumes exhibit the highest skill of the 
world’s greatest artists. 

The editions are limited to small numbers, many of the 
books are printed on the choicest papers, and the colored 
illustrations are exquisite. The bindings are such as only 
the master craftsmen of France can produce, among those 
represented being Trautz-Bauzonnet, Chambolle-Duru, David, 
Canape, Lortic, Meunier, Mercier, and Marius Michel. 

Among the authors whose works were selected for produc- 
tion in the highest style of the art of printer, illustrator, and 
binder are Balzac, Beaumarchais, Bourget, Coppée, Daudet, 
Dumas, Flaubert, France, Goncourt, Hugo, La Fontaine, Loti, 
Maupassant, Mérimée, Moliére, Montaigne, Rabelais, Rostand, 
Uzanne, Verlaine, and Zola, but there are hundreds of others. 

Among the First Editions of earlier times are the works of 
Racine, Corneille, and Voltaire; Rousseau’s Emile, Perrault’s 
Hommes Illustres (Paris: 1696-1700), and the genuine First 
Edition of Le Sage’s Gil Blas. 

Some of the books with Eighteenth Century engravings are 
very important. Among them are Berquin and Rousseau’s 
Pygmalion, Paris: 1775, on Holland paper; Cervantes’s Don 
Quixote with plates by Berger; Dorat’s Les Baisers, 1770, on 
large Holland paper, and Fables Nouvelles, 1773, on large 
paper; Longus’s Daphnis et Chloe, Lille: 1792; the Heptam- 
erone, Berne: 1780-81; Marmontel’s Contes Moraux, Paris: 
1765, and Les Ineas, 1777, and Pezay’s Zélis au Bain, Genéve: 
1763.

Amsterdam: Chez Louys & Daniel Elzevier, 1655 


A beautiful copy of this extremely interesting volume, long 
accepted as the scarcest of all Elzeviers, measuring 125 millim. 
by 74, and containing a fine, clear impression of the plate, 
which represents a kitchen with cooks preparing various dishes 
of game and pastry. Its great rarity is partly accounted for 
by its having been used and thumbed to pieces by cooks and 
kitchen-maids, instead of being preserved on the shelves of the 
collector, as the other Elzeviers were. The binding is a very 
fine example of Trautz-Bauzonnet. 

This is the copy described in the Fontaine catalogue (4,500 
francs), bought by La Roche Lacarelle, and contains his book- 
label and that of F. R. Halsey.
